Geranium Seeds - Red Climbing

Red Climbing geranium seeds produce vigorous plants with a trailing to climbing growth habit, commonly grown as warm-season annuals. Plants develop long, flexible stems that can be trained on trellises, fences, or supports, or allowed to cascade from containers and hanging baskets. This type performs best in mild to warm climates with good sunlight and air circulation. Red Climbing geraniums adapt well to garden beds, containers, and vertical plantings when grown in well-drained soil with consistent moisture.
